I opened https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/emacs/pull-request/41 and
mentioned it in that bug.

$ rpm -q --scripts emacs
preuninstall scriptlet (using /bin/sh):
/usr/sbin/alternatives --remove emacs /usr/bin/emacs-29.4 || :
posttrans scriptlet (using /bin/sh):
/usr/sbin/alternatives --install /usr/bin/emacs emacs
/usr/bin/emacs-29.4 80 || :

I think that preuninstall scriptlet should instead be:

if [ $1 = 0 ]; then
  /usr/sbin/alternatives --remove emacs /usr/bin/emacs-29.4 || :
fi

See 
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/Scriptlets/#_syntax.
If that sounds right, a bug report is in order.

I have my "alternatives" set to emacs-nox, but updates frequently
change it back to emacs.  Too lazy to figure out why

alternatives is forgetful?

2024-06-28 Thread Tom Horsley
I've always set my emacs alternatives to lucid emacs. Today I
did a big dnf update, rebooted to get new kernel, and then got
an error when I started emacs about the "pure GTK" version
not operating correctly under X11 (one of the reasons I use
lucid).

Why did my alternatives config setting revert?

Anyway, I've now removed all versions except lucid. Maybe
that will make it stick :-).
